Control Robert as he explores a derelict, seemingly abandoned ship. Darkness and empty halls are everywhere. See if you can figure out the fate of the crew and if it's not too late to avoid a similar fate. Perhaps not everything is as it seems onboard here.

Theme: 10 seconds.

Controls:
Arrow keys to navigate.
X to interact with the world.

Hope you enjoy!

but what is the second part?

I really liked this game. Even if it's not 'finished' as such, it's still an interesting story that leaves a lot of room for interpretation.
The controls are very nice too and I have never felt this worried about a rectangle before.

Kind of reminds me of the movie Event Horizon.

I enjoyed it. I like how the story sort of slowly developed. Good atmosphere, too, especially when the music cuts. Feels like something's going to come at you any moment. The secret pickup was awesome, as, apparently, am I. The ending was a bit abrupt, but that's my only complaint.

*Jumps*

"Hi"

What did I do?!

Great game, very nice ambiance, I just don't get what happened when I jumped through that hole.. Was I supposed to be there?
